Default WTR: Hangar in R.I.

Well it is time to leave sunny California and head Northeast for a year! I have a spot in a large community hangar at Providence (KPVD) reserved, but was hoping someone would have a lead on a smaller hangar, possibly closer to Newport, (Quonset State (KOQU))?

Looking to start renting August 1st. (Post OSHKOSH!!!)

Thanks,

Dan

RI is such a small state a hanger anywhere would work. anyways, westerly is usually advertising for space. there is another rver at quonset so there may be help there. that is one big airport with a nice airshow every summer. good luck. see you in the air this summer. drop me a PM or email with your info so we can do some flying. block island here we come.

Hi Dan,

I was speaking to Alan Andrade yesterday, Director of Operations for Rhode Island Airport Corportation who run all 5 RI airports, about hangar space for you this summer. He placed calls to the airport managers at Quonset and North Central to inquire about space for you - neither Block Island nor Newport have any private hangars. There are only 10 private hangars at Quonset, and all of them are full - I have been asking around on your behalf. I spoke to Paul Smith, who indicated that he could "find a place for you" - in a corner of the large public hangar for the summer. He said it would probably be around $400/month. His cell is 401-639-niner-zero-4-ate.

Good Luck!

Default Thanks much

Noah,
Thanks for shopping around for me. I really appreciate it. I have a spot in a community hangar at Providence reserved at this time for $308/mo, but was hoping for a T-Hangar or shared hangar and closer if at all possible. I am learning hangars are few and far between there. I spoke with paul a few weeks ago and he said he was full. I will give him another call.

If anything comes up, please let me know. Thanks again, much appreciated.

Dan
